i think i no this boat it used to play at allhallows power boat club many years ago raced that boat many times for fun good to no it is still about, i wanted the same seats in my boat mike ring wanted £900 plus vat which was rather a lot for 2 front seat back then ,ended up buying second had ones of a ski racer just needed recovering regards paul

Are you sure its the same boat? I bought it off a guy in Oxford, who had it for about 6 yrs and he in turn bought it off his mate who bought it new, had it set up for racing but never raced it. At least that is what i was lead to believe.

ONE OF MY OLD BOATS BOUGHT IT NEW OFF MIKE IN 1989,always wondered where she ended up.

There you go! Its an 89 alright! Wanted to remove most of the deck hardware and do the gel repairs but the original gel was too far gone! Had a gal of awlgrip left over from a job so used that!
Was that your engine on it too, the BP carb?

Still havent run it with this weather lately but Ill give it a run as soon as it breaks and stick a pic or two up!

Did you race it, there were sponsor names on the deck at some point, photographed into the gel.

Only club ski racing at Wallasey and Deeside,if you look closely in the gel my sponsor was Boathouse Garage,B.M.W./Porsche dealer.The guy i sold it to was a local butcher,he put the bridge port on,i was running a stock 200 merc.Hows tricks anyway?Any movement on that big cat yet?

A few pics of the Rings that we have owned.

Yellow 18 foot with 150XS straight six early 80's
White 21 foot with 200hp V6 we changed the screen from white to black in 87
Still got the little red white and blue 18 footer with XR2

We had a brown and cream 16 foot ring in the late 70's before camera's were invented.

Hi Dowdy, Cant remember that but remember seeing limousine hire being on there and a few other things. Was hard to make out as I was just reading the imprint left in the gel.

The bridgeport still runs, although its a bit of a frankenstien now, with two modVP sleeves in it and four BP cylinders.
Its not on there any more.

It hasnt been a bad year actually, one cat at the beginning of the year, a couple of the 650SS (old shetland 19 moulds) and now have a comfortable no of orders in for next year, Cats and 650's.

Started laying Gel on a Ninja green 650 this morning, and we might be doing something interesting with a 21 Cat before Christmas.

The twin rig was a Bernico, hardly any Cyclones in the UK then, good play on words your avatar, Paul how is the Panterra, Simon & Jake are out there most weekends practising with Barrys White & Red Cyclone, my twin stays in the garage (too much fuel for training). Was out with Mickey and some other members last night in the Red Dog.
